Haven't tried this myself but I think it should be possible:
- Upload the file to S3 using the S3Uploader, obtain the url
- Put the url in the message body of a tweet with the DirectTweeter
I'm not sure whether that will automatically shorten the url, if not you may need to run it through a url-shortening service before putting it in the tweet.
This article should give you some pointers.

You cant attach but as Hans said you can upload it somewhere else and provide a link to it
